Yes select NSW and wait for invitation for nomination. Nand2 pa lng ko sa stage na ito.
Based sa mga nabasa ko d2, once invited meron ka link to apply for nomination and d2 ka magbayad ng $300. After nito kung swertihin and ma nominate, d2 na ata yung ITA for 190. Yes most likely eto na yung part na magbayad tyo ng medyo malaki.
Wait natin yung iba mag reply...
